Fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions can be
negatively impacted by a number of factors.
Examples of causes of increased fuel con-
sumption include:
•
If the car is not regularly charged from the
mains.
•
If the car is equipped with extra equip-
ment that affects its weight.
•
Driving style.
•
If the customer chooses wheels other than
those mounted as standard on the basic
version of the model, this could increase
rolling resistance.
•
High speed causes increased air resis-
tance.
•
Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions,
weather and the condition of the car.
A combination of the examples above could
increase consumption considerably.
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes, in combi-
nation with poorer fuel quality than recom-
mended, are factors that considerably
increase the car's fuel consumption.
